How do the owners here feel about it? Getting tired of it? Any glare? Also, anyone combo with Bordeaux seatbelts (they don't quite match the CF red leather side bolster on the configurator).

I currently have my order in for Shark Blue but am tempted by Gentian. I've seen Gentian in person only inside the dealer and under their lights, then a couple driving by quickly. In the showroom the color looks beautiful. Now, what I notice in a lot of these photos is how many don't look anything like what I've seen in person. Is that because the color is difficult to photograph or does the car look drastically different in different lighting?

It's a very deep metallic blue that changes dramatically based on lighting. It can be more subdued indoors but in the sun, it absolutely gleams with hints of violet in certain angles. Very hard to judge off photos. I saw this GB on Bordeaux Macan this afternoon, and the colour was absolutely stunning in the sunshine.

This is the look of Gentian that has me considering it over the Shark. I look forward to locking in 3 months so I don't have to worry about this vs that anymore.
